Within the group of 15 people, only three actually understood Muyoung
Ki Baeksoo
They were the ones who completed the trials of ‘the Star of David’ and the ones ith hi Boss Battles That hy they knew h that was only the tip of the iceberg
However, it was better to set up a suard
If someone took extreme measures to find infor’s identity early
He didn’t need a lot Muyoung decided to do one last thing
‘The subconscious’
The subconscious was so that influenced a person’s actions
So that the person himself couldn’t notice It was the territory of the mind that even one’s consciousness couldn’t approach
The subconscious was soered by a specific action or thought Then it would manifest in one’s consciousness
The Chief of the Forest of Death, Wung Chunglin, used his strange skills and the subconscious of his victims to brainwash them into members of the Forest of Death
He made them into puppets who didn’t fear death and skillfully erased his presence frolin lived only as a ‘shadow’ that no one are of
This was the decisive reason why no one knew the true identity of Wung Chunglin besides Muyoung
As Wung Chunglin used viciouswould have lived the reh the limit
To preserve his disappearing self, Muyoung instinctively read the history of his targets’ Status Viehich helped him build up his mental defense
Only because of these countless stories slowly bringing his subconscious back out was he able to break free fro and annihilate the Forest of Death
Didn’t stories play an important role in the ‘Art of Death’ skill as well? Perhaps, even getting the Death Lord class was unavoidable
Anyways, Wung Chunglin used countless reatest assassin, Muyoung, and through this, Muyoung was able to understand his methods little by little
‘I think it’s possible to execute the 2nd stage at most’
Methods of es
1st stage
Manipulate the surface layer of one’s conscious to control their actions
2nd stage
Make a special action trigger a single idea that will change their conscious
3rd stage
Increase the boundaries of their unconsciousness and erode their mind
Wung Chunglin was able to freely use any of the 3 stages to manipulate one’s subconscious
Muyoung thought it was possible to execute up to the 2nd stage
Up to the 2nd stage was still considered relatively easy
It wasn’t impossible to make someone not reveal information about him or avoid certain situations when they see a specific action
On top of that… it could also strengthen their mental defense in preparation for unlikely situations
‘It is the only way to escape frolin’s evil influence’
Although it wasn’t a method he particularly liked, it was the most optimal one
It would be helpful to Muyoung and it wasn’t bad for everyone else as well
Wung Chunglin was a ht be of help when they experience even the slightest touch of his evil influence
If they were strong with high intelligence, this would be useless However, as they eak, it was only obvious they had to prepare beforehand
‘My real eneed this world’
Muyoung didn’t forget his original objective
Although the hatred for the Forest of Death ran deep, Muyoung placed the Demon Gods as the root cause
He believed that the world changed because there were Demon Gods that wanted to annihilate humans and that their deaths would be his final objective in living a ‘ful life’
He regarded himself as a hero that wasn’t a hero because he wanted to remove all the obstacles in his path
Even if he was someone as called a hero in the past
If they didn’t obstruct his way, he wouldn’t go out of his way to disturb them either However, there was no reason not to move obstacles that were in his way
That hy he didn’t hold getting his identity exposed in any regard
It was enough if he could gain sufficient time to enter the Sky Library
Muyoung fundamentally acted alone
This wouldn’t change in the future
If there were other heroes that wanted to kill the Demon Gods, he could provide some help, but would never join them
Muyoung was Muyoung and they were them As their methods were different, it was best not to bother each other
Also… didn’t he personally witness hus collapse frivolously?
This was the reason why Muyoung resolved hi himself
On top of that, the Underworld was a place where the strong were able to defeat the masses
He would become a true superhuman and annihilate his enemies
‘I guess I have to get started’
There wasn’t ates would open
“Hehe, is it tasty?”
Muyoung and Suzy were sitting together
Suzy was playing around with the Eers
She giggled as she watched Kking Kking chewing on a bean with gusto
Taehwan, Baeksoo and everyone else would be nervous when facing Muyoung
However, Suzy was different from everyone and wasn’t nervous at all
It was probably due to her good senses that she realized Muyoung didn’t really have any bad intentions She followed Muyoung based her instincts
‘The best type for burrowing into one’s subconscious’
Manipulating one’s subconscious wasn’t so that could be done to anyone
That was if you weren’t at Wung Chunglin’s level
First, there must be some trust and confidence towards the manipulator It had to be to the point where if one was to claiold, the other would say, ‘it really could be gold!’
“You’re enduring better than I thought”
“Really? I always think I’ mistakes…”
“Everyone makes those mistakes”
